ISSA Kansas City Mentoring Program
The Kansas City ISSA Chapter mentor program is designed to
formalize relationships between more senior professional individuals in the
chapter (Mentors) and security professionals seeking to learn from these people
to gain skills or further their career (Mentees).
How do I sign up?
You can find the application and expectations for the
program below. A couple of things to note:
- To be a Mentee you have to be a current Denver ISSA
chapter member! Non-members are encouraged to join in order to take advantage
of this great career opportunity.
- Mentor/Mentee matches are made based on several factors
including goals, geographic location and experience. Because we aim to make the
best possible matches based on several criteria we cannot guarantee that
everyone will be matched.
